SAGE MINI CRYSTAL CLAW CLIP
Shop the SAGE MINI CRYSTAL CLAW CLIPA petite, hand-swirled sage acrylic claw clip set with AB crystals in 14k gold-plated settings — a refined take on the half-up classic, sized to add a whisper of shimmer without overwhelming the silhouette.
10 Ways to Wear It
- Wear the sage mini crystal claw in a half-up, half-down and pair it with a chunky gold chain necklace and small pavé huggies — the clip becomes the focal point when necklaces lead the ear zone.
- Stack the clip with a slim silk scarf tied low at the nape of the neck and oversized square sunglasses for an elevated errand look straight off the Paris street-style circuit.
- Pin back a low, slicked bun with the crystal claw and finish with our rosette drop earrings in gold — let the clip sparkle against pulled-back hair for dinner dates.
- Layer the claw with our pearl and gold chain lariat necklaces, then add barely-there diamond studs so the neckline stays the headline at a gallery opening.
- Pair two sage mini claws on either side of a center part in a low ponytail, balanced with chunky sculptural gold earrings and a polished leather belt for proportions that read from across the room.
- Secure a messy French twist with the clip and layer our bold sculptural cuff on one wrist — let the wrist lead while the hair stays subtle for a rooftop cocktail hour.
- Style a clean middle part with a low chignon secured by the claw clip and finish with our statement crystal drop earrings and a tailored blazer for after-work drinks with the team.
- Clip a face-framing half-up and pair with a chunky rosette headband pushed back and statement square sunglasses — clip handles the front, headband supports the back.
- Wear the claw in a low ponytail and layer our silk twilly scarf around the base as a hair tie, with small gold huggies and a thin gold cuff for a Sunday brunch that looks considered.
- Stack three mini claws vertically down one side of a deep side part ponytail with oversized gold hoops and a single layered chain — modular sparkle for concert night or first date at a wine bar.
Occasions
- Brunch with the girls in a linen set and gold hoops
- After-work drinks with coworkers in a tailored blazer and low bun
- Sunday stroll to an art exhibit in a silk scarf and oversized sunglasses
- Dinner date at a wine bar in a slip dress and layered gold chains
- Mom running errands in an oversized button-down, vintage denim, and a polished half-up
How to Style It With Your Hair
Hair DownGather the top section from temple to temple, twist once toward the crown, and secure with the clip — let the lengths fall in soft, undone waves.
PonytailPull hair into a low ponytail at the nape, then clip the mini crystal claw just above the elastic, covering it for a polished finish.
Half-UpTwist the top half back from the crown, fold inward to create a soft roll, and fasten with the claw for the brand's signature half-up silhouette.
BunTwist hair into a low, slightly loose chignon and pin the claw directly over the twist to lock it in and add crystal focus at the nape.

Styling Tips
- At just 2" x 1", the sage mini is a layer piece — pair it with one larger crystal moment elsewhere (earrings or a headband) rather than stacking it with another oversized hair accessory in the same zone.
- AB crystals shift between warm gold and cool iridescent, so they read beautifully against both warm neutrals (camel, ivory) and cool tones (sage, dove gray) — build the outfit around that versatility.
- For proportions: bigger earrings call for a sleek, pulled-back hairstyle so the claw and the earrings each get a clear moment; smaller earrings let the claw live inside a half-up without competition.
- Hand-set crystals benefit from a soft cloth wipe after wear to keep the 14k gold-plated settings bright — store the clip flat in a pouch to protect the navette and pear stones from chipping.
